Heath Ledger's Joker performance in The Dark Knight had resulted in some tragic occasions. Since then, DC have been struggling to solve their onscreen Joker problem. Apparently, choosing a brand new actor to solve this issue did not help the studio. This is the reason why they preferred Joaquin Phoenix to play the this iconic clown villain. The latest news indicate that Phoenix might be the only Joker we will see for a while.

According to an article in Forbes, Worlds of DC and Warner Bros are currently discussing to end Jared Leto's damaged version of the Joker, once and for all.

This does not mean that Suicide Squad 2 is cancelled but rather the solo Joker movie starring Leto is probably will not happen anytime soon. This is probably bad news for the fans who are craving to see some onscreen romance between Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and Joker (Jared Leto).

This Forbes article also claims that the upcoming Suicide Squad has sparked some new ideas about the universe. The studio has decided to completely reimagine DC's villains. It is expected that Suicide Squad 2 will have a new cast of characters and it will avoid direct connections to the first film's events.

Joaquin Phoenix has previously ensured fans that this Todd Phillips led Joker movie will be both interesting and impressive. Phoenix also admitted that playing the latest embodiment of Joker has terrified him.

"It feels unique, it is its own world in some ways, and maybe, mostly, it scares the f**king shit out of me or something," he revealed.

It is not wrong to say that we will be saying goodbye to Jared Leto's short-lived Joker.
